The seventh weekly release candidate of Linux 6.16 is now available for testing with the stable release debuting hopefully next Sunday otherwise the following week...

Gradia’s latest update introduces a new option to generate eye-catching screenshots of source code snippets.

The feature can turn a custom snippet of source code into a colourful graphic for presenting in documentation, tutorials or sharing on social media.

Code Snippets can be displayed with a window frame or without; with line numbers or without; and support a variety of popular programming language syntax. A choice of colour scheme, Adwaita, Solarized, and Oblivion included, is available.

Gradia was created to make it easier for Linux app developers to make eye-catching graphics of their software for store listings, though it has expanded its feature set in recent releases to become a solid all-round image annotator and basic image editor.

Adding the ability to generate styled screenshots of source code feels like a nod back to its developer-focused roots, and the results sure do look good!

The code snippet feature isn’t the only change Gradia 1.7 brings. Other improvements include:

• Text and Stamp tools now support optional outlines
• Images can be rotated in 90-degree increments
• Colour pickers are no longer modal (more accurate colour picking)

There’s also a cropping tool for trimming an image prior to export; default export filenames are more descriptive (and include creation time); and the app no longer asks for confirmation on close if the open image has already been saved.

As a reminder, Gradia is not an app for taking screenshots, it is an app for making screenshots look nicer. It can hook into the system screenshot tool to take new screen-grabs in app, and you can configure it to auto-open when you take a screenshot – but its job is prettifying.

Install Gradia on Ubuntu

If you have installed Gradia from Flathub, pop open a Terminal and run flatpak update to update to the latest version and try the new features first hand.

If you want to install Gradia on Ubuntu as a Snap, you can as Gradia is now available on the Snap Store! Seek it out in App Center, or run sudo snap install gradia to snag it.
